Introduction to the Exponential Age

Raoul Pal returns in his role as the founder of Global Macro Investor to update Real Vision members on the exponentially large role crypto is playing within his macro framework. Raoul argues that crypto is a “black hole” that is sucking in all of the world’s talent and value at a speed that no one can comprehend and that its capacity to generate phenomenal returns for investors is not temporary but rather part of a durable long-term trend that is at the vanguard of what he calls “The Exponential Age.” Raoul contends that since central banks have suppressed the volatility of currencies and interest rates, large “macro” on heavy swings in these variables no longer offer the opportunity they once did and that it is in the world of crypto where these outsized returns can be found. Filmed on April 10, 2021. Key learnings: Raoul sees the migration of value to the digital world as an exponential trend that offers opportunities for an investment return that are no longer possible in traditional capital markets.

Raoul Pal returns with his latest crypto update in a new episode that could be his most important yet. With insight into key crypto trends and evolving crypto prices, Raoul and Ash touch on everything from popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and Luna to updates on NFTs and the Metaverse. In this sequel to “The Exponential Age” and “The Bitcoin Life Raft,” Raoul Pal, CEO and co-founder of Real Vision, sits down with Ash Bennington, senior editor for Real Vision, to discuss how his thesis has evolved since he began his Adventures in Crypto. This is what Adventures in Crypto has, in part, been leading up to — Pal taking everything he’s learned over the last two or so months and giving you, the audience, the straight analysis on exactly where he thinks everything is going. Also, as a special treat for the audience, Pal and Bennington open up the show to questions submitted from the audience. Trust us, you don’t want to miss out on this video — and yes, we know we’ve said it before, but we really mean it this time. This truly is a MUST WATCH episode. Recorded on October 28, 2021.
